The fact is that there isn't a hotspot specific developer guide as of now. What's important to me is getting stuff like this documented *some place* a new member will find it. It's outrageous to come aboard as a new JVM developer, and have access to no documented answers to such basic necessities as logging, and just be expected to figure it out from hearsay.
So could we just get it into the documentation-base as a first step, and leave discussions about perfect locations as step 2?
